docs-mcp-server is an open-source MCP server that provides grounded documentation access to LLM-based coding tools, positioned as an alternative to Context7, Nia, and Ref.Tools. It is written in TypeScript, ships with agents.md, .claude/ and CLAUDE.md files, and can run via Docker or Node.

You want a self-hosted, MIT-licensed way to feed grounded library docs into MCP-capable editors and agents instead of relying on hosted services.

Use it to

  • Serve grounded docs to Cursor or Windsurf via MCP
  • Integrate documentation lookup into VS Code Copilot workflows
  • Run the server in Docker alongside your agent toolchain
  • Configure Claude Code using the bundled CLAUDE.md and .claude files

For Developers building or using MCP-capable AI coding assistants
